Naturally, in true Las Vegas fashion, the Golden Knights had to put on an insane pregame show to kick off the series.

First came an intense pregame video, combined with a group of archers shooting down every other team in the NHL on the ice to “defend their fortress.”

Then, skaters in red capes representing the Washington Capitals came bursting out on the ice. They were brought down, though, by a giant cannon ball launched from the upper deck and then finished off by a “Golden Knight” in an epic battle at center-ice.
